The word that best represents the idea of the narrator Judith Cofer in "Gravity" is Rebellion.
The story is about how the girl rebels against the rules set al home, the way she dresses, the attitudes she takes and even the music she hears, even taking them against her parents in front of other people.

“Even though it was forbidden, Antigone decided to defy the state's law and give her brother a burial. Antigone was right to defy King Creon because she had the right to bury her brother and her brother deserved a respectful burial so they could honor their family. Every person deserves a respectful burial.”
